'IMMANUEL' /εμμανουηλ/ = God with us.

-update 1 (Dec 12,2010) -
last night we had our church' prayer meeting at our new place.
Trying for not being too emotional, we fell and enjoyed the presence of the LORD there.

In the midst of our prayer, I was reminded about this revelation of 'who our GOD is'..

here I want to share, the message of Christmas.

Bible says "Behold, the virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, And they shall call his name Immanuel;" (Mat 1.23 - as you can see in the youversion widget on the side of this page)

So now we know what is the message of Christmas:
GOD is with us. God of the ages, The Creator of universe, LORD of all creations, the Beginning and the End, is with us..
He didn't hold His mercy, He didn't hold His holiness, He didn't care about His richness.
The most wonderful thing is that He didn't hold His Only Begotten Son to give to us, for He so loved the world...
Thus to show us that He wants to be with us, that He wants us so bad, that He is madly in love with us..

He wants us to know that He is with us.

-end of update 1-

God fulfills his promises. (see my blog about the Alpha and Omega /το αλφα και το ω/ /את/)

so,what is his promise to us?

'IMMANUEL' /εμμανουηλ/=God with us.

that His Presence is so real..

Matthew 1.22-23

22 All this took place to fulfill what the Lord had said through the prophet: 23 “The virgin will conceive and give birth to a son, and they will call him Immanuel”[g] (which means “God with us”).
